Official wheelin’ trip pics thread

Our little group went to BMRA for Mega Run 23. The silver YJ and XJ were both new builds. The YJ had ECU problems, he had a bench tune on the LS computer and it wasn't reading the throttle 1/2 the time. The XJ was having typical XJ problems, over heating, fuel starvation issues. Out of all that I was the only one in our group to actually break something though, broke a rear chromolly 4340 alloy usa 44 shaft. Our buddy in the YJ rolled hard on scorpions overlook he rolled backwords and 1 barrel roll, but surprisingly the jeep had only a crinkled hood, 1 hour after the rollover he was on twister!

Did a bit of daisy sniffin' down in Las Cruces with my father and got to check out and cut shit off his new Bronco. I think his LJ may be up for sale soon.

The Bronco didn't do bad other than being a lowrider and dragging over everything. Now my wife thinks I need one :homer:

Got out and did some snow wheeling this last weekend outside of Boise. Snow was around a 40" base with about 20" of wet snow on top. We found out quick going off trail was disastrous.. it got deep quick.

For sure. He got lucky as it broke in the afternoon on friday and wide open designs is an hour north of the park, so they were able to run up there and get the shock rebuilt and was back on the trail the next day.

I am bummed I couldn't get anyone rounded up to ride with down there. I hope the weather was better in Socorro this weekend than it was in the East Mountains.

Took my BGT out by Queen valley AZ for some wheelin' and camping. Truck did great with latest rounds of mods. Cold beer, cold A/C, loud heavy metal, great weather, good times.
Of course, the poser shot
